The Piper’s Call
David Gilmour, Polly Samson
[Verse 1]
Take these binds everlasting
Can't undo the voodoo that you do
And the knots that we fasten
Will not work themselves loose
[Chorus]
Whatever it takes
Steer clear of the snakes
The road to hell is paved with gold, they'll tell you
All the things that you don't need, they'll sell you
[Verse 2]
Your conscience uncontrolled
And beauty to behold
The promise of eternal youth
The spoils of fame, a carpe diem attitude
[Verse 3]
The flamеs are high, the piper's call, contagious
A fixеr who will numb your pain, and strangeness
The wheels are hot, the hangover outrageous
This dealer, he will trade your soul for favours
[Chorus]
But you'll reap what you sow
As I found long ago
The promise of eternal youth
The spoils of fame, a carpe diem attitude
